There's beauty in mystery|Open

[Miles Bletchley, Jr.]

Mystery is all over and it is beautiful.

Miles heard that line over and over in his head and he couldn't remember where he heard it from. It seemed like he had heard it years ago, before his time at Hogwarts. During the time when he still had parents. The line didn't seem like something that his parents used to say, though.

The color and the stars in the sky are a mystery. They are beautiful.

He laid down on the ground close to the Forbidden Forest and looked up at the stars. The person who said those words was right. The stars were beautiful and he knew that not much was known of them, so they were a mystery. Miles sighed and began wondering if his father was up there, somewhere, watching.

"Not all mysteries are beautiful," said a child. "Some are horrible and sad."

He remembered that voice. It was his. The innocent, sweet voice of a happy little boy, who didn't realize that his life was going to turn out so bad. It hurt Miles to hear that voice. It reminded him too much of his life before... that horrible time.

"But that's the beauty of them."

This voice was different, deep, cold. He didn't recognize it. Something told him that it could've been the voice of his father. Miles was nine when he died, he thought for sure that he would be able to recognize his dad's voice still, but... maybe he wouldn't. Miles probably wiped it from his memory because he would never hear it again.

He heard a twig snapped somewhere and he looked around, wondering who would be out this late at night. Miles sat up and put his hand on his wand. If he had to attack, he would be ready. "Who's there? Show yourself!"

Rehema sighed as she walked though the common room and sighed she had just gotten back from Japan her uncle was buried there so she had to go seeing that she was the only family that was left. Her father was still on the run and killing everyone in her family. Remmy didn’t know what to do and now she was homeless and lonely with Miles not around, and none of the letters she wrote him were answered she started to lose it just a little. This summer was crazy living off the streets of Japan and doing unspeakable things just to survive. Most of the time she prayed that Miles would come save her but reality was not a friend to her as she knew he didn’t even know she was taken to Japan.

Leaving the common room she looked around the halls for one of her many friends but no one was around which scared her she lost so many of her friends in the war hell she almost did as well if it wasn’t for Miles saving her life from her own father, but she didn’t tell Miles that Remmy was not one to talk about her father but she knew now that the last person that was protecting her was gone her father would no doubt come after her, she shook at that thought as she was now making her way outside maybe Miles was out here somewhere.

“Miles?” she asked loudly as she walked down the path towards the forest she knew he liked the forest so that’s where she was going. “Well, look at what we have here” an older Slytherin said as he came up and blocked the way to the forest she was so close to the forest she could see it but now she had to deal with an over ego boy that thought that she liked him. “Just go away!” she shouted loudly in a shaky tone. “I have a boyfriend and I am not interested in you” she added with a smirk she was loyal to Miles no one could take his place. Suddenly the boy grabbed her and pushed her into the forest. Breaking twigs the whole way.

“Stop struggling” he demanded as she pushed her to the ground and started to kiss her as he pinned her to the ground. Then she heard it the cold tone of her boyfriend “Miles! Please help” she screamed loudly as she hoped he heard her she looked at the older boy as tears rolled down her face “please stop..please don’t do this” she begged as the jerk continued.

The voice that answered him, he would know anywhere. Remmy was in danger. He jumped to his feet and pulled his wand out. Miles looked around, but didn’t see anyone, so he began walking forward. “Remmy?” he called. His hope was that she would keep talking, so he could follow the sound of her voice and find her quicker. “Remmy, where are you?” He looked around as he went, but he didn’t see her anywhere.

He hadn’t seen Rehema in awhile. He had been beginning to wonder if she was ignoring him for some reason, like maybe she didn’t love him anymore, but when he heard her calling for him, all those thoughts faded. Miles knew that she still loved him, had to. He couldn’t concentrate on anything until he found her. She was in trouble and he had to save her. But, dammit, where was she?

“Rehema!” he called again, looking around carefully. Then he spotted them. Remmy was on the ground and there was a Slytherin boy on her. Miles pointed his wand carefully, so he would hit the boy without hitting Remmy and said, “Crucio!” He could get into a lot of trouble for using that curse, but he didn’t care. He had to protect Remmy somehow. Miles watched as the boy screamed in pain. When the pain subsided, he got down next to him and held his wand to the boy’s throat. “Leave my girlfriend alone or next time, it will be the killing curse.”

He put his wand away as he stood up and went over to Remmy, getting down on the ground and putting his arms around her. “Are you alright?” Miles watched as the boy ran off, not at all scared of him telling anyone. He’d get out of trouble. After all, with the dark lord in control, and him being a loyal follower of him, no punishment will hold. He kissed Remmy’s cheek. “Where’ve you been? It’s been ages since I’ve seen you last.

[remmy]

Remmy laid still as she listened to what Miles did she sighed with relief that he showed up she was still weak from being on the streets of Japan for two months alone with no way of connecting Miles for help. She missed him so much and was thankful he was out here tonight or she would have been hurt or worse. She looked up at him as he came over to her and wrapped his arms around her. “Miles” she said weakly as she grabbed him and pulled herself closer to him. “Please don’t let me go” she begged as she rested her head on his chest.

She smiled as he kissed her cheek and sat up more before kissing him deeply before looking at the ground she really did want to be with him this summer and would have if she got a hold of him hugging him tightly as if he was going to be ripped away from her. “Miles you are the only one I have left now a week after school was out last year my father found my uncle and I and attacked us I got away but my…uncle didn’t” she said as she tried to force out why she was so quiet this summer. “He was looking for me all summer and I didn’t want to get you or your sisters hurt so I stayed away” she said honestly as she hugged him again.

She loved Miles and only felt safe around him he was the only one that knew about her pa*sed and how her father was on the loss and after her again. “Miles please don’t let him get me! Please!” she begged as she hid her head in his arms and sighed “I don’t have anywhere to go now on breaks I’ll be back on the streets not eating and being alone; I don’t want to be alone anymore”

[Miles Bletchley, Jr.]

Miles wrapped his arms around her tightly. She didn’t have to worry about him letting her go. He would never do that. He loved her so much and really wanted to be with her. Nobody would be able to pay Miles to leave her alone. “Don’t worry. I won’t let you go, not until you really want me to.” And he hoped that would be never. Miles loved having her in his arms.

When she told him what happened, he cursed himself for not being around to protect them. She could still have an uncle and a place to live if he’d been there. Her father wouldn’t have had a chance against him. He would’ve killed him before the guy could even raise a wand. “I’m sorry, I wasn’t around. I could’ve fought him to keep you and your uncle alive. And don’t worry about my sisters. I haven’t seen them in ages. I’ve been living on the streets. I guess the girls live with the Malfoys, but I won’t go there.”

Miles tightened his arms around her to help her calm down. “I won’t let him near you. Nobody can hurt you with me here.” When she said that she’ll be on the streets, all he wanted to do was offer her a place to stay with three hot meals a day and hot showers. That can’t happen, though. “I want you to stay with me. We’ll be on the streets, but we’ll survive. We’ll find a way.”

[remmy]

Remmy hugged him tightly to scared to let him go now, so much was going on and she was just happy to be in his arms again hoping that they didn’t have to leave each other again. Miles was all she had left and she was not ready to lose him either. Smiling as she listened to him say that he will not let her go until she was ready; she would never be ready to not feel his touch. Resting her head on his shoulder she smiled again she felt so much safer and calmer with him. She knew she was young but she could already say she was in love and knew what it was.

Rehema listened to him and smiled she knew he would have done anything to protect her if she was there and it killed her to hear he was on the streets too and she started to cry that’s not what she wanted to hear it hurt that he had to go through all that and she was not here to help him. “I am sorry too if only I was here sooner I could have helped you.” She said as she kissed his cheek, “I hate being apart” she added truthfully and she really meant it.

She rested in his arms as she was half awake and half asleep she had not been sleeping well in fear that her father was going to pop up everywhere she went so sleep was not something she did much now. She was happy that Miles was saying that he was going to protect her and that he wanted her to stay with him. She didn’t care that she would be on the streets she found it easy she just hated not having Miles around. “I don’t care where I am just as long as I can be with you Miles. I love you”

[Miles Bletchley, Jr.]

During their time apart, he had missed this. He loved having her in his arms. There was a time when he didn’t think that he would ever find the one girl that he loved as much as he did Rehema. It was almost immediately after first meeting her that he wanted to be with her. Love came later, after he realized what it was. He tightened his arms around her more and kissed the top of her head.

Every tear that fell from her eyes was like a knife in his heart. He never wanted her to cry, never wanted her hurt. She should have a happy life, one that made her have a permanent smile on her face. “What’s wrong? Don’t cry, Remmy.” He hated being apart, too. Miles couldn’t stand the idea that she could be somewhere cold and hurt and he not being able to do anything. If he could help it, that wouldn’t happen again.

It was settled. Whenever they weren’t in school, they would wander around the streets, stealing as needed. It became easy for him. Miles had mastered the art of breaking the law. “We’ll always be together. Nobody could tear us apart. I love you, too.”
